SCALE AND PERSPECTIVE

Dear reader, if this entry or my other blog entries don't answer your specific photography questions, you can call me on the phone anytime for advice by clicking here.

Today's blog entry is very short, but effective. When photographing large-scale scenes, whether they are natural or man made, it is important to include a reference point (such as humans) to give the viewer a sense of scale. As camera lenses do not give a 100% accurate representation of reality, it helps to either include background subject matter of a known scale, or additional foreground elements that the viewer can make spatial judgments from. In this case, the people in front of the falls show the scale of the waterfall.

I took this photo at Montmorency Falls, near Quebec City. Mark's photographic prints for your wall can be purchased at www.markhemmings.com
